I think the last update from Crew Resources said the first base for the C Series would be SEA..should go pretty junior for those that want to live in the PNW. CG

Yeah I've heard SEA with LAX as a less likely contender as well as NYC and ATL of course. I've also heard that LAX 717 may at least shrink some.

I think the 717 is gonna be pretty fluid over the next few years covering DCI as they draw down..once the C-series comes on line..who knows! Respectfully, CG

Usually a two year equipment freeze.

I would expect a new hire to have a chance to upgrade to captain in about 15 years. No, I am not kidding.

Current upgrade to Captain is 4 months.

777, 7ER, 73N, 717.



I haven't seen it held out of training in the last year.



Mainly NYC right now. Though in the last six months there have been drops to ATL and DTW.



Weird because I got it a month out of training on the 737 and the ae occurred during indoc

I was hired in jun of 2015. Our drop had 7er to LAX. It that was unusual. Several of my indoc mates got lax within 3-6 months on the 73n.

Most junior right now is about 400 numbers from the company plug.

That was weak and unreadable; say intentions.

Does the 777 fly through other bases or just hit the same 5 or 6 spots out of Lax?

Can somebody give me some updated info on DAL bases? What equipment is at each base, seniority for each base and aircraft? Thanks.
